    Vinotemp Dispenser - any experience?

    Appreciate the info. I know this sucker is expensive, but I love the idea of being able to keep 4 bottles on hand and fresh for weeks - not that it would take me that long to finish them. :) This kind of system would help me justify spending more occasionally on a REAL good bottle of wine...

    Does anyone having any experience using the Vinotemp 2 or 4 bottle wine dispenser? I am looking at the following...

    Anyone Need A Wine Fridge Humi?

    This is not my area of expertise, but I believe it could still work just not ideal because you will have larger swings in humidity... I think. You would have to do something about the temperature as well, but as I remember from looking into this a long time ago, there is a way around it by...

    Anyone Need A Wine Fridge Humi?

    $148?? Heck of a price for a wine cooler, even one that has mixed reviews. According to one review, upper 50's is the warmest it will go.

    Chicago... What's Up?

    Sounds good, Eric, perhaps later this week. This evening I had intentions of only grabbing some dinner and a couple of cocktails but my feet had other thoughts. Since I was already on Wabash, by feet kept me going and I ended up at Iwan Ries. Talk about being under dressed. :) I showed up in...

    Chicago... What's Up?

    Thanks for the suggestions Thanks for the suggestions! So far, I haven't had an opportunity to get out much but that will end soon. I'm taking off early this afternoon to explore a bit. I'm thinking about possibly grabbing a cigar at Iwan Ries. After checking it out online, it seems very...

    Chicago... What's Up?

    Haven't been to Chicago in years, especially at this time of the year, which for a Floridian... burrrrr. At any rate, I will be there for a conference next week and even with the cold weather in my sight, I'm looking forward to the trip. In any event, since I will have some time in the...

    Greetings from stormy Las Vegas

    Matty, I don't have any strong opinion one way or the other; however, if your intent is to simply "find out what all the new cool cigars were", why not just read the board without posting? It's one thing to be a contributing member (in good standing) that actively participates on the board and...

    Happy B-Day theorangeman, rochestermayo & redraider. Enjoy fella

    I appreciate it. I'm taking the day off and heading to the beach in a bit with my wife and kids (and of course, a tasty cigar yet to be determined). :)

    What is your last cigar that you really enjoyed?

    I'm enjoying a Camacho Triple Maduro this evening and would say that this qualifies as a cigar that I really enjoy. It's not all that complex, fairly straight forward, although one that I can count on every time I pull it from my humi. It's also a great cigar to enjoy after spicy or full...

    What is your last cigar that you really enjoyed?

    Never been a big fan of the AF Short Story because... it is usually too "short" of a smoke. However, this evening I got home early from work and had about 30-40 minutes to myself before my kids and wife came home so I pulled one out of the humi. I really enjoyed it as it hit the spot. :)

    What are you smoking tonight?

    Wow... looks like we missed each other by a night and a year. I had one of those bad boys last night from 05. I enjoyed it to say the least but as you mentioned, not sure if it was any better aged or not. Been a long time since I had one that was 'fresh'. Nonetheless, it was tasty with the...

    What box would you buy?

    There ya' go... had an Imperial the night before last and enjoyed it thoroughly (as usual). :thumbs:

    who here has a man cave?

    When my wife and I lived in Illinois, I had a very sweet set-up. A room that was off our living room that I made into a theater room. My wife didn't even mind me smoking in there. She had pretty bad sinus problems back then so she couldn't smell much. However, now if I come in after smoking...

    What box would you buy?

    I'll go against the grain a bit on this one... lately I have found myself grabbing a Diesel Unholy Cocktail over a Padron 2000/3000, which both boxes ironically sit right next to each other in my humi. Don't get me wrong, as others have mentioned, Padron is a great smoke which is why I'm always...

    Where can i smoke

    Just finished up a week in Vegas. Since going without my wife, I opted for less frills with the room so I could have more money to gamble. I think my room at Bills Gamblin Hall will probably smell like a giant cigar for weeks to come. Had a great time and productive financially as well - finally!

    What is your last cigar that you really enjoyed?

    I've been in Vegas all week and have enjoyed good smokes every day. Surprising (at least to me) is that my most enjoyable smoke was one that I almost didn't buy... Ilusione 888 with a candela wrapper. I was VERY skeptical about the wrapper but decided what the hell and bought it any way. I...

    Strongest cigars you have smoked

    Actually had one the night before; great smoke but for me,, there are others much stronger such as the LFD DL Chisel and the Camacho Triple Maduro.
